Procurement organisation, Fusion21, has announced the renewal of its national Lifts Framework. Worth up to £80 million over a four-year period, the framework is the newest part of Fusion21’s Building Safety and Compliance offering.
Designed to meet the needs of housing providers, local authorities, NHS trusts, blue-light organisations, education providers and central government - the framework will deliver lift related work and services to estates across the public sector.
“Fusion21 members will again be able to access full turn-key solutions for lift installation and refurbishment and fast-track installation for urgent lift replacements."
– Peter Francis
Director of Operations, Fusion21
Split into five lots, it will support a variety of design, installation, refurbishment and the servicing/maintenance of passenger/goods lifts and domestic lifts (including stairlifts, step lifts, platform lifts and hoists).
The framework will offer options for fully comprehensive or basic maintenance, in addition to specific lots for lift consultancy services and carrying out thorough examinations required by LOLER (Lift Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations 1998).
Structured to open doors and collaborate with SMEs, the framework enables suppliers to bid for works suited to their capability, experience and expertise.
“Set for launch in May 2020, this enhanced and fully compliant framework has been developed in response to member and supply chain feedback and will provide both regional and national coverage whilst also facilitating local delivery," continued Fusion2's Peter Francis.
“We welcome applications from interested organisations that meet the criteria set out in the tender documentation now available on the Delta e-sourcing platform. The submission deadline is Monday 30th March 2020 at 12 noon.
